The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[Mr G from SD]

Haven't posted in quite awhile, hoping everyone is well. Thought this one was post worthy:

Saw this a week ago for $700 and went back hoping it would have an extra clearance mark-down. It was marked down A LOT more. Don't understand how that happened, but it's mine, and that's all that matters.

1975 Army issue watch, Navy SEAL Luminox, ‘84 Reagan button
Only decent things in an $8 grab bag

 

[noob in 89]

Those are awesome!

I see now that watch was pretty much copied by an Engineered Garments/Timex(?) collab.

This morning’s thrifting: Naked & Famous selvedge, MI Italy Zegna for personal, mint Hanover apron toe shoes, MI England Joseph Cheaney wingtips, super vintage (1959!) Florsheim 93602s and MI England Dr. Martens. Last two were from the bins at $2 a pair.

Went out in the pouring cold rain to brave half off day and came away with some goodies.

Two pair of NWT Louis Vuitton Uniformes pants in black, silk/linen Armani jacket, Armani suit, Eleventy (pop) jacket, an Etihad Airways tie, Deckard shoes, Brioni shirt, and a 75% full bottle of Kouros.

You're killing at the bins every day. The thrifts must seem insanely overpriced when you're paying by the pound.

What's with "The Winery Dog" on the Kouros bottle?

 

[mco543]

I assumed it was given to someone as a gift and they had it etched onto the bottle

There's a band called The Winery Dogs, that was the best I could do. It might also have been a reviewer's note about what the fragrance smells like.

I thought this was really cool and it is definitely a really vintage Levi’s piece, but the damage on it was pretty bad. Moth holes all over the back and one arm had a huge tear across it.

Unsure about this sweatshirt, Im thinking its either pretty old or fake. it was cheap so thought i would take the chance. Any input/help would be appreciated!

Terrible fake.

Lotta random finds this week, venturing into areas I don’t know a lot about. Always learning though.

First real leather jacket, San Diego Leather Navy Flight jacket, weighs about 10lb.



Nike Air Force 1s, Size 8 (2003 reissue)


Prada and Warby Parker x2 frames, Revo ladies sunglasses (are Revo’s still a thing?)


Nice shirt haul with Borrelli, Prada, Etro, Dunhill, RLPL, Paul Smith


Burberry x4


Cannoli and D&G


This is kind of cool. Ladies Northface for the US Fish & Wildlife Service

...Any ideas? The leather makes me think possible real. Inside makes me think no?

Are likes equating to "probably real"? @SpooPoker is that in your wheelhouse? I think it may be real now that I was able to look it over more, but I was not able to find this bag.

The inside keeps telling me fake though.
The strap and the way it's stiched with brand seems good though.
